Abstract

In AD 48 Claudius delivered a speech in support of a petition from Roman citizen elites of Gallia Comata for admission to the senate. Part of that speech survives on the and in a version by Tacitus in his account of the Gauls’ petition in 11. This paper demonstrates how Tacitus transforms, while respecting, his Claudian source, and offers some methodological considerations about his handling of speech.
